We flew from Australia on the 25th and booked to stay at Bee's till the 28th. Firstly her dad Pimon accommodated our 1am landing into Bangkok by meeting us and giving us a run down on the place and as well as the surrounding area. We cannot thank him enough for his hospitality and help. Bangkok is an extremely overwhelming place to be at that time of the morning, we got the AOT service from the airport to Bee's property this cost us 1400 baht (about 50 AUD/28 GBP) more expensive than a standard taxi but we had a lot of luggage and we couldn't complain for a 40 minute journey. The area is in a very Thai neighbourhood and although not in central Bangkok, from the property it's about a 10 minute walk to the BTS station - and onwards to Siam Central (main station) which will have you access all the areas and shopping centres. For this go into the station and press the 34 line and will cost you about 24 baht for a single journey. Or if your are travelling frequently on the bts get the rabbit card for 180 baht. Also once you get the entrance of the bts if you carry on left you will reach the boat terminals where you can take the river taxis over to Wat Pho and the reclining Buddha Temple. Take the orange express line to Tha Tien pier (about 12 baht for 2) and then a taxi over the river for Wat Pho (about 2-3 baht) There's some really nice markets and food stalls on the 2 minute walk to the reclining Buddha temple from Tha Tien.. Try out the grilled bananas! YUM! To finish our trip we explored some night markets left of the property which is great! All in all a fantastic experience, please choose Bee if you're ever after a little slice of Thai life away from the main hotels, you'll also save as well!
Special thanks to Pimon also once again!
